Some choices described in your Windows NT Workstation manual do not appear because they are preset. 2. During the setup procedure, you must indicate that you accept the Windows NT Workstation license agreement and, when prompted, type the Product ID number from your Certificate of Authenticity. The Certificate of Authenticity is attached to the front cover of your Windows NT Workstation manual. 3. After the setup procedure is completed and the computer is restarted, when prompted, press Ctrl+Alt+Delete to display the log-on window.
